I played with a few settings and found 'run with with graphics processor'. It keeps crashing on my nVidia GPU but works with the intel integrated graphics.
SOLVED for now. Thanks for the help.

Same problem

I have played this game for months and haven't changed any of the settings on my computer. The last few days I wanted to play, I can't get the game to start. I hit play game, then hit Play! on the config screen, then I get 3 seconds worth of a black screen with the mouse cursor visible and then back...
